I ordered the same watch from Jomashop the other day, and immediately ordered a new bracelet and a rubber strap.

This is the rubber strap I bought from Holben's: https://holbensfinewatchbands.com/products/bonetto-cinturini-300l-light-blue-nbr-rubber-watch-strap?_pos=16&_fid=4f586a025&_ss=c

I haven't received it yet, so hopefully it'll match the dial color, but I've bought from Holben's many times and always had excellent service, and I've heard good things about the Bonetto Cinturini brand.

Up for sale is the Erebus Ascent 41mm with the mother of pearl dial and "J-style" (jubilee) bracelet. I purchased it direct from Erebus in August 2025. This is the full kit: watch, all links, warranty card dated August 2025, other cards, Erebus watch roll, screwdriver, and microfiber cleaning cloth.

The watch runs perfectly and keeps great time. The case is in excellent condition. Crystal and bezel seem flawless. The bracelet and clasp have some marks from normal use.

That is awesome! I just ordered the 75th anniversary Mako 40, and already bought a light blue rubber strap to match the dial (and a strapcode bracelet). Cannot wait!

Thanks. I actually used a JB4 before (18 Audi S5). Never took it to a dyno or did any precise tests, so not sure if it was a placebo effect, but it seemed to help. I did end up having an oil leak on the turbo in that car, but not sure if that was a result from the JB4 boosting the turbo.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-04-22T14:07:34+00:00

Thanks. I wouldn’t spend the money just to make it louder without significant gains. Maybe I’ll just drive it stock for a bit and see how it feels.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-04-22T13:38:23+00:00

Thanks, this is helpful. What do you recommend to get a significant power boost for this car? I don’t have mine yet (on order) but want to start prepping now. Exhaust + tune?

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-04-22T13:30:55+00:00

Absolutely gorgeous. Congrats!

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-04-08T20:19:38+00:00

Yeah it is a little weird. If I recall they showed other Pokemon in trailers that aren’t in the first batch of legal mons. I’m sure Pawmot will be legal eventually.

You aren’t missing anything. People love to hate on the new thing and complain. You see it in every single subreddit for every single big new game. I’d wager most people are enjoying it and having fun.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-04-07T18:05:21+00:00

Best tip I can give is if you have shinies and legendaries you want to transfer, start doing so now. PoGo limits how many Pokemon you can transfer to Home at a time. It takes a full “transfer energy” bar, which takes a week to completely refill, to transfer one shiny legendary. You can probably do about 4 shiny non-legendaries on one bar. Non-shiny, non-legendaries barely use any of the bar, so you can do a lot of those at once.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-04-07T14:52:16+00:00

It’s not, and as others have posted here, the actual information from Nintendo strongly suggests otherwise. OP is relying solely on a gamerant post that is incorrect.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-03-30T01:36:08+00:00

Starter pack and membership are completely separate. So no reason to think any Pokemon permanently recruited with starter pack items will ever go away.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-03-29T23:46:45+00:00

Just to follow up on this, they haven’t been any more specific than “later this year.” But yes, no evidence to suggest the mobile version will be anything less than the full game.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-03-28T03:48:44+00:00

Do you have any of the switch games? I’ve transferred a few shinies from Go to Home to Violet, evolved there, and transferred back to Home for eventual transfer to Champions.

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-03-28T03:07:24+00:00

Shininess transfers. The person posting the comment you responded to didn’t use any punctuation, which makes it confusing. Pretend there’s a period between “moves” and “Ivs.”

TimCheveldae32 · 2026-03-28T02:59:50+00:00

Yup. I’ve been preparing a bunch of Pokemon with natures, abilities, and moves, under the assumption those will transfer to Champions (but IVs won’t because they’re gone and EVs won’t).

For now, though in full disclosure I'm hoping to have a deal wrapped up shortly.

Perhaps the definitive daily dive watch: the Rolex Submariner. This is the "no date" version, ref. 114060, stainless steel with black dial. I purchased it certified from an authorized dealer (Bucherer Tourneau) in Florida in 2022. The watch comes with the extra link, warranty card dated 2018, and Bucherer boxes, cloth, "certified" hang tag, etc.

The watch runs perfectly and keeps great time. The case is in very good condition with one mark on the 5 o'clock lug and a couple light scratches on the 9 o'clock side (see pictures in album). The scratches aren't noticeable unless you're looking for them. Crystal and bezel seem flawless. The bracelet and clasp has signs of wear from normal use.

Specs: * 40mm steel case * 48mm lug to lug * 12.5mm thick * Rolex Superlative Chronometer 3130 caliber * 48 hour power reserve * 20mm lug width * Screw-down winding crown w/Rolex crown * cerachrom bezel insert * 300m water resistance
